Hi guys,

Just been for a swim and showered afterwards. Had a really hot shower (Im talking ~40 C) for roughly 10 minutes. My shower room is small and enclosed with no ventilation. Is it possible that the chlorine left on my body couldve turned into gas form during my shower?

I was thinking that the heat of the shower had somehow made the chlorine 'vaporize' and that I was breathing it in?

Ahhh I think im getting what you mean now... but do you think if there was any danger at all for that to be possible, showers would be provided everywhere for people after they have been swimming...

I think its has to get to a certain temperature like 90 for it to turn to gas. I wasnt to good ar science at school
